Merlin wrapped in 2012 after five seasons on the air. A potential spin-off or revival of the popular series was teased after it ended, but it looks like a revival will not happen.
Angel Coulby starred on the series, and she was asked about the chance of a revival recently. She said the following, according to Digital Spy:
“I think that ship has sailed, I’m afraid. I think we’re all a bit too old now – if they did ever do a film, we’d probably all be recast in younger form! It was a great experience and a show I’m still very proud of, but we’ve all moved on to other projects now, so Merlin will just have to remain a happy memory.”
Were you a fan of Merlin? Are you sad that fans will not see a revival? Tell us what you think.
Bring this show back I watched it in a week and cried for two after seeing this painful yet beautiful ending. It was a show that would’ve made it a decade and still can. It was iconic, original, exciting, heartbreaking, wonderful, as well as funny. Who knew you could find such things all in one yet there it was. Waiting to be seen please bring this back because everybody who played their part surely made it something amazing in every way.
Come on BBC – please bring back Merlin I’ve just re-watched the entire 5 seasons in 2 weeks !! Best show ever . We need to see the exciting rebirth of King Arthur and the best ever relationship between Merlin and King Arthur once again It’s never too late- we need Merlin, King Arthur and Gwen back on our screen
Please revive Merlin. It is the reason why I started watching TV again. Whatever happened to the phrase “the once and future king”?
Merlin was without a doubt one of the most fantastic series ever made. With a tale as old as time, there is a reason King Arthur Quest for Camelot is still told today, it is a story based on morals such as Faith in God, Honor, Courage, Loyalty, Depend women, the poor, the weak, and children, Work to better than world, Charisma, Humility. Stories such as this one will be remembered for hundreds if not thousands of years. With that being said a revival of the series would be without a doubt worth it in every sense. There are so… Read more »
There is no reason not to reprise the series, just have to make it a time when the characters, the SAME characters, are more mature. In the original legend, Arthur and Merlin do not disappear into obscurity when they are young. They just have to make a way for the death of Arthur to have been a mistake, i.e., he is healed at the Isle of Avalon and lives to command Camelot for another 30 years. It is a very great, timeless story which has fascinated hundreds of generations with the values of friendship, honor, adherence to the ideals which… Read more »
I think they should bring back Melani one off the best program merlin and Arthur is funny
BEST. SHOW. EVER. I wanted a Season 6. I wanted to know what happens to Merlin. This was SO good…. it should never have been canceled so soon! Huge loss.
What have they exactly moved on to?? I think they would all jump back in a heart beat.
WHY WAS THIS CANCELLED. It was so enchanting and riveting. Yet ended so weirdly. I so wished it would be remewed. Compared to the trash being shown now, why would they cancel something so well done? Is it being played anywhere…what network?
It can be after a few years have passed! This is just me holding on to my last hopes of Merlin… However, I truly loved the series and the finale always makes me cry!!!!!
I need a Merlin season 6!!!
I know kfklaj, my 9 year old son and i have been binge watching it. We are on season 5 episode 12. My son says he wants to wait till Friday so we won’t be done with the show tonight. I have never seen a show so well written that you can you sit and watch with kids that actually has content. Writers and actors hit a home run. I’m actually surprised it wasn’t more popular. Thank God for Netflix because I really think that most people discovered the show threw Netflix.
please make series 6 same cast. Loved it.
Yes. I will be sad if they don’t ever put it back on again. But I have enjoyed the series. I love it in fact. Thank you,*** from the bottom of all your fans hearts to all who helped make Merlin possible before. God bless all of the actors ventures in the future.
MORE MERLIN PLEASE
Why do they have to be in the same age when the show ended. Tired of the entertainment business with everyone having to be young all the time especially women. She doesn’t look that old to me not old at all.
